    Hey everybody. Im new here and am still figuring out how to navigate around so please forgive me if my question has been asked and answered. I spent a few hours looking around and didnt see it. I have a 2019 TRD PRO. I want to upgrade the tires to some thing more agressive and a little more meat on the street. I am keeping the stock wheels (i like em). I wanted to keep the same diameter so as not to mess with the speedo, shift points and vehicle traction control. So i came up with the ridge grapplers 305/60r18. They are a third of an inch larger in diameter and about 1 1/4 wider. Anybody do this??? Was thinking of adding bora 1 1/4 inch spacers. I would appreciate any input.

    I have 295/70 R18 tires and installed 1.25" wheel spacers. I like the wider stance, but not the new dirt on the side of my nice white truck. I'm changing to BORA 1" spacers as I see any thinner spacers like BORA's 0.75" will allow the rear wheel lugs to protrude through the spacer and into the wheel. Saving 0.25" isn't much, but I hope it will help a little on the dirt and I think the BORA's are a higher quality than the cheaper 1.25" spacers I bought. If you're running wider tires, you may have even more tire outside of the wheel well than me, but that may not bother you.
